Ezekiel 14
1 Then came there unto me certain men of the elders of Israel, and sat down before me.
Kutu sin mwet kol lun Israel elos tuku nu yuruk in siyuk ke ma lungse lun LEUM GOD.
2 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
Na LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik
3 Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and the stumbling-block of their iniquity have they placed before their faces: shall I in any wise let myself be inquired of by them?
ac fahk, “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, mwet inge elos sang insialos nu ke ma sruloala, ac elos lela tuh ma sruloala uh in kololos nu ke ma koluk. Ya elos nunku mu nga ac topkolos?
4 Therefore speak with them and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Whatever man it be of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and layeth the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet: I the Lord will answer him, although he cometh with the multitude of his idols;
“Inge, kaskas nu selos ac fahk ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos: Kutena mwet Israel su sang insial nu ke ma sruloala ac lela in kolol nu ke ma koluk, na tok el suk kasru sin sie mwet palu, el ac fah eis top sik — sie top ma fal nu ke pusien ma sruloala lal!
5 In order that I may grasp the house of Israel by their heart, those who are separated from me through all their idols.
Ma sruloala inge nukewa oru insien mwet Israel uh forla likiyu. Tuh ke sripen topuk luk, sahp elos ac sifilpa forma ac akfulatyeyu.
6 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Return, and cause [your heart] to turn away from your idols: and from all your abominations turn away your faces.
“Na inge, fahkang nu sin mwet Israel ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos: Kowos forma, ac fahsr liki ma sruloala srungayuk lowos.
7 For whatever man it be of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel, that separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and layeth the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and then cometh to the prophet to inquire through him of me: I the Lord will answer him through my word;
“Kutena pacl sie mwet Israel, ku sie mwetsac su muta Israel, ac forla likiyu ac alu nu ke ma sruloala, na tok el som siyuk kas in kasru yurin sie mwet palu, nga LEUM GOD pa ac sang top nu sel uh!
8 And I will set my face against that man, and will make him an astonishment for a sign and for proverbs, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
Nga ac fah lainul. Nga fah sisella liki un mwet luk ac oru tuh elan sie mwe srikasrak in sensenkakin mwet ngia. Ouinge kowos fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.
9 And when the prophet suffereth himself to be deceived, and he speaketh a word: I the Lord have suffered that prophet to be deceived: and I will stretch out my hand against him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
“Sie mwet palu fin kiapweyukla ac orala sie top sutuu, nga LEUM GOD pa oru elan fahk ma tia pwaye uh. Nga ac sisella liki un mwet Israel.
10 And they shall bear their guilt: as the guilt of the inquirer is, so shall the guilt of the prophet be;
Mwet palu sac ac mwet se ma suk kasru sel ah, ac fah kaiyuk eltal oana sie.
11 In order that the house of Israel may go no more astray by not following me, and not pollute themselves any more with all their transgressions; but that they may become unto me a people, and I may be unto them a God, saith the Lord Eternal.
Nga fah oru ma inge tuh mwet Israel elos in tia sisyula, ac tia akfohkfokyalos sifacna ke orekma koluk lalos. Elos fah mwet luk sifacna, ac nga ac fah God lalos.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
12 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik
13 Son of man, if a land should sin against me by trespassing grievously, and I stretch out my hand against it, and break unto it the staff of bread, and send out famine against it, and cut off from it man and beast;
ac fahk, “Mwet sukawil, fin oasr sie mutunfacl oru ma koluk ac tia pwaye nu sik, nga ac asroela pouk ac supwala sie pacl in sracl in uniya mwet ac kosro, oana sie.
14 And if there be these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, in the midst of it: these through their righteousness should save but their own soul; saith the Lord Eternal.
Finne Noah, Danel, ac Job wi muta we, a moul suwoswos lalos lukun molela na moul lalos sifacna.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge uh.
15 If I cause wild beasts to pass through the land, and they depopulate it, and it becometh desolate, without any one to pass through because of the beasts:
“Ku sahp nga ac supwala kutu kosro lemnak in uniya mwet we ac oru facl sac in arulana sensen, na wangin mwet ku in fahsr sasla we.
16 These three men [if they were] in it, as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, should not save either sons or daughters: they only should be saved, but the land should be made desolate.
Oana ke nga LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa God moul, finne mwet tolu inge muta we, elos tia ku in molela moul lun tulik natulos, a moul na lalos sifacna. Na facl sacn ac fah sie acn mwesisla.
17 Or, if I should bring a sword over that land, and say, The sword shall pass through the land, and I cut off from it man and beast;
“Ku sahp nga ac oru tuh in oasr mweun in facl sac, ac supwala kufwen mwe mweun in sukela mwet ac oayapa kosro.
18 And if these three men should be in it: as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, they should not save either sons or daughters, but they alone should be saved.
Ac mwet tolu inge finne muta we — oana ke nga LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa God moul — elos ac tia ku in molela moul lun tulik natulos, a moul na lalos sifacna.
19 Or, if I should send out the pestilence against that land, and pour out my fury over it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast;
“Nga fin supwala sie mas upa nu in facl sac, ac uniya mwet puspis ac kosro puspis ke sripen kasrkusrak luk,
20 And if Noah, Daniel, and Job, should be in the midst of it: as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, they should not save either son or daughter; they through their righteousness should save their own soul.
finne Noah, Danel, ac Job muta we — oana ke nga LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa God moul — elos ac tia ku in molela moul lun tulik natulos. Moul suwoswos lalos ac molela na moul lalos sifacna.”
21 For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Although I send my four dreadful means of punishment over Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the wild beasts, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast:
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk: “Nga ac supwala mwe akkeok akosr ma upa emeet luk nu fin acn Jerusalem — mweun, sracl, kosro lemnak, ac mas — in uniya mwet ac oayapa kosro.
22 Still, behold, there are left therein some that escape who shall be carried forth, both sons and daughters; behold, they are coming forth unto you, and ye will see their way and their doings; and then will ye be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, yea, concerning all that I have brought upon it;
Fin oasr mwet painmoulla su molela pac tulik natulos, kom in ngetang liyalos ke elos ac tuku nu yurum. Liye lupan koluk lalos, ac akilen lah pwaye fal mwe akkeok ma nga sang nu fin Jerusalem.
23 And they will comfort you, when ye see their way and their doings; and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have executed in it, saith the Lord Eternal.
Na kom fah etu lah oasr sripa wo ke ma nukewa nga orala uh.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk ma inge.
